00:16 from the advent of artificial intelligence or AI.
00:19 At the same time, if we look at Thailand,
00:22 we can see that AI is a challenge for Thai investors as well.
00:27 We need to hurry up.
00:28 Today, we are going to talk about this.
00:30 Is AI going to take over Thai's jobs?
00:33 Today, we are going to talk with Dr. Thanisorat,
00:36 the Deputy Chairman of the Thai Investment Investment Association.
00:41 Hello, Dr. Thanisorat.
00:43 Hello, Mr. Ice and the audience.
00:46 Hello, Dr. Ice.
00:47 So, will AI take over Thai's jobs?
00:51 Will AI take over Thai's jobs?
00:55 AI or Artificial Intelligence
01:01 is an application.
01:06 But the scary thing is
01:08 where is the app placed?
01:12 Suppose it's placed in a car.
01:14 It's AI automation, right?
01:17 If it's placed in a car, it can run.
01:19 Right?
01:20 Or if it's placed in a computer,
01:25 it can manipulate it.
01:29 Will AI take over people's jobs?
01:31 It has to tell where those people are.
01:35 Where they are.
01:36 Because the impact is different.
01:38 Right?
01:39 So, the first group,
01:42 I'll divide you into groups
01:44 to make it easier to understand.
01:46 Right?
01:47 AI has been around for almost 10 years.
01:53 Yes.
01:54 As the President of the National Council of Labor,
01:58 I've been watching this since before COVID.
02:01 I've been following the factory that changed the AI machine.
02:05 The machine that put AI in it
02:09 became a machine that doesn't have to think.
02:13 It does it by itself.
02:14 Right?
02:15 I've seen this for a long time.
02:16 AI is very close to us.
02:20 It's in the Korean.
02:21 It's in your phones.
02:24 Right?
02:25 What do we see in our phones?
02:28 Open AI.
02:30 Right?
02:31 Chat GPT.
02:32 I'm working right now.
02:34 I'm working on the chat GPT.
02:37 It's in Google.
02:38 Google, right?
02:39 Yes.
02:40 Google, these are in daily life.
02:44 I have a company that makes e-magazines.
02:49 Right now,
02:50 people don't think.
02:52 They just order it.
02:53 At the New Year's holiday,
02:55 they say, "Go build a house."
02:56 "There are pine trees, snow, and so on."
02:59 It's built by itself.
03:01 Right?
03:03 In February,
03:05 there's Valentine's Day.
03:06 Right?
03:07 The students and teachers go to feed the pine trees.
03:09 "There's a heart shape."
03:10 "There's a shape like this."
03:11 "There's love."
03:12 "There's something."
03:13 "I want to be pink."
03:14 "I want to be pretty."
03:15 It's written by itself.
03:16 It's a book.
03:18 People don't do it.
03:19 Right?
03:20 This is very close to us.
03:23 Now, it's in the picture drawing.
03:26 Daily E.
03:28 These people.
03:29 Don't forget that it's close.
03:31 Now, we use Siri.
03:33 Alexa.
03:34 These people order it.
03:36 Right?
03:37 I went to China recently.
03:38 Oh, I'm comfortable now.
03:40 I went to Google Translate.
03:42 Right?
03:43 I went to Google Program.
03:45 I took a camera and a mobile phone
03:47 and sent it to them in Chinese.
03:49 It's written in Thai.
03:51 Right?
03:52 I'm telling you,
03:54 in Korea,
03:55 AI is in our daily lives.
03:57 New generation cars.
03:59 You bought a car yourself, right?
04:01 You bought a car yourself, right?
04:03 Right?
04:04 In business,
04:06 the ones that affect people the most
04:10 are business people in the industry.
04:12 In the industry,
04:15 in the...
04:17 What is it?
04:18 In the financial institutions,
04:20 in the educational institutions.
04:21 These people are very fast.
04:22 Financial institutions.
04:24 They've been found many times.
04:26 Do you remember the ATN?
04:29 It was 20 years ago.
04:31 The institution was bankrupt.
04:34 Now, AI is going to virtual banking.
04:39 There are no banks anymore.
04:41 The National Bank has closed the register.
04:43 Our big banks have closed the register.
04:46 There are no more people
04:49 who can borrow money.
04:51 Now, money in the financial institutions
04:53 is all digital.
04:55 We don't have digital wallets anymore.
04:57 Right?
04:59 Yesterday, I went to buy
05:01 a meal for a million won.
05:03 I gave the money to the guy.
05:05 The donuts.
05:07 If you don't receive the money,
05:09 you have to give it to the QR code.
05:11 It's close to us now.
05:13 We can't reject it.
05:15 So, the banks that are going to be in trouble,
05:20 the institutions will close down.
05:24 The employees will be affected
05:28 in 3-5 years.
05:31 My company is small.
05:33 We're going to change a lot of things.
05:35 Right?
05:36 Because now, it's connected
05:38 to Microsoft, ERP,
05:40 and big data.
05:42 We're going to buy supply chain,
05:45 and send documents.
05:47 There are a lot of things.
05:49 We're going to change the paperless.
05:51 Another group is the business.
05:53 It's coming fast.
05:55 Our business is coming fast.
05:57 There are 6 million employees
05:59 who are affected.
06:01 Because the business has been
06:03 using smart technology for a long time.
06:05 Right?
06:06 When AI is used in robotics,
06:08 the robot is genius.
06:10 There are no people in the bus.
06:12 There are no people in the warehouse.
06:15 People put things in,
06:17 and put them in the right order.
06:19 When you press a button,
06:21 it puts the pallet out.
06:23 Right?
06:24 This is all AI.
06:26 What we can see clearly is
06:30 automation in factories is decreasing.
06:33 Some of the factories I've seen,
06:37 there are only 10 people left.
06:40 Yes.
06:41 This is clearly seen in the flip.
06:44 There is a big factory.
06:47 I went to see it before COVID.
06:49 After COVID, I went to see it again.
06:51 There are 2,500 people left out of 5,000 people.
06:54 Half of them are gone.
06:56 The big factory is a big deal.
06:58 It's a part of almost every car in Japan.
07:03 Right?
07:04 And they say that the 2,500 people left
07:07 will be reduced by half in phase 2.
07:09 Oh.
07:11 It will be reduced by half.
07:12 When people take it out,
07:14 it will be the 40-45 years old.
07:17 It's scary.
07:18 Yes.
07:19 When it's taken out,
07:21 the skill you have is zero.
07:25 Right?
07:27 And what is new and a problem
07:29 that we don't talk about much is EV.
07:32 Yes.
07:33 EV is a big deal.
07:34 You have to understand this.
07:36 Our automobile industry
07:38 has factories
07:40 with almost 1,000 or 1,600 or 1,000.
07:43 I'm not sure.
07:44 But there are 750,000 people.
07:46 And the factory is a surprise chain.
07:49 They think that a part of it,
07:51 10,000 pieces,
07:52 they say that the rest are 1,000 pieces,
07:54 not more than 3,000 pieces.
07:55 Yes.
07:56 Right?
07:57 What does this mean?
07:58 It means that the factories
07:59 that are involved in the EV industry
08:02 are easy to say.
08:03 The water supply is gone.
08:05 Right?
08:06 The water supply, the air conditioner, the engine,
08:08 all of these things are gone.
08:10 And where are the people
08:11 that you said you would develop their skills?
08:14 Yes.
08:15 EV is scary.
08:16 And the traffic.
08:17 Traffic.
08:18 This year, the traffic is as bad as the oil companies.
08:22 Yes.
08:23 Right?
08:24 They say that
08:25 if the EV industry in Thailand
08:28 goes up 30-40%
08:30 it will affect around 3,000-2,000 people.
08:33 Is this just EV?
08:35 EV is a big industry
08:37 because it has the most people.
08:39 More than 700,000 people.
08:40 Yes.
08:41 Right?
08:42 More than 700,000 people.
08:44 Right?
08:45 There are reports from foreign universities
08:48 that America has replaced Tesla
08:51 with a car that has 70,000 people.
08:54 Yes.
08:55 Right?
08:56 Japan estimates that
08:58 in the next 30-40 years
09:00 EV will affect 300,000 people.
09:03 Yes.
09:04 Right?
09:05 Europe, not to mention
09:07 Germany and the EU
09:10 have announced that
09:11 in the next 10 years
09:12 there will be no fossil fuel cars.
09:14 Yes.
09:15 It will be 100% EV.
09:17 It will affect people.
09:19 We need to converge.
09:21 The economy will grow fast.
09:23 As for the third group,
09:25 the services,
09:26 the payment of goods,
09:28 we see it online.
09:29 Yes.
09:30 A lot of people are gone.
09:31 The distribution of goods,
09:32 the logistics of goods,
09:34 the distribution of goods,
09:36 we see it very often.
09:38 So,
09:39 how do we respond?
09:41 As I said,
09:42 the freelance workers,
09:45 there are a lot of them.
09:46 There are a million of them.
09:47 How do we adjust?
09:49 The design team.
09:50 Yes.
09:51 The design team
09:53 will design the blueprint.
09:55 Green prints,
09:56 clothes,
09:57 legal work,
09:58 legal work,
10:00 will be there.
10:01 The next job will disappear.
10:03 Direct sales will affect.
10:05 We need to be careful with these people.
10:09 The question is,
10:11 how do the construction companies see it?
10:14 They see it.
10:16 One person is missing.
10:18 The labor force is less.
10:21 The old people are more.
10:24 The people in the labor force
10:27 don't care about adjusting.
10:29 The labor force is high.
10:31 The labor force law is not very flexible.
10:33 The labor force is low.
10:35 This is the answer.
10:37 If AI is cheap
10:39 and it can help with these jobs,
10:41 it won't hesitate to decide.
10:43 Right?
10:44 The workers who are still here,
10:46 they are the ones who need to
10:48 use their mouths.
10:50 They need to use their mouths
10:52 like you and me.
10:53 Right?
10:54 The ones who need to use their hands.
10:56 The ones who need to use their faces.
10:59 Face to face.
11:00 Yes.
11:01 The ones who need to use labor force,
11:03 special skills,
11:04 and all these things.
11:06 The ones who are still here.
11:08 Otherwise, it won't be 100% gone.
11:10 Yes.
11:11 How do the people who are still here
11:13 adjust?
11:15 It's quite big.
11:17 Don't forget that
11:18 we just raised the EV industry alone.
11:20 Yes.
11:21 How many people are gone?
11:23 Around 100,000.
11:25 In the past 10 years.
11:27 And the ones who are following
11:29 are not...
11:31 AI is a market
11:34 and a way to get a hold of people.
11:36 It's a way to get a hold of people.
11:38 So how do we adjust?
11:40 It depends on the age.
11:42 If you are in the age group
11:44 not over 33, 35,
11:46 it's not hard to adjust.
11:48 Because they already have
11:50 the IT skills.
11:52 But these kids,
11:54 the ones who graduated from
11:56 the education, they have the knowledge.
11:58 But the skills they got
12:00 from having kids,
12:02 they don't get much.
12:04 So these kids
12:06 enjoy changing jobs.
12:08 You have to be alert
12:10 that the ones who graduated
12:12 in the first 2 years
12:14 are in a difficult time.
12:18 Because the kids who graduate
12:20 in the next 2-3 years
12:22 are more prepared.
12:24 They are more prepared.
12:26 I talked to the new generation
12:28 of the young people.
12:30 The kids who are
12:32 under 30
12:34 don't have much knowledge.
12:36 But the new generation
12:38 who are still in the 3rd year
12:40 will be more aware
12:42 of the price.
12:44 You have to adjust.
12:46 You have to adjust quickly.
12:48 The IT skills are important.
12:50 The language skills, etc.
12:52 And those who are
12:54 over 30, 35, 40,
12:56 these kids
12:58 have to adjust quickly.
13:00 The 40-year-old
13:02 kids are tired.
13:04 It's hard to adjust.
13:06 They are 49 years old.
13:08 They are the target group.
13:10 I can't explain
13:12 all of these groups.
13:14 Each group has different
13:16 ways to adjust.
13:18 The important thing is
13:20 if you still have a job,
13:22 you have to enjoy it.
13:24 If your job is good,
13:26 you can enjoy it.
13:28 If you are old,
13:30 you have the skills and experience.
13:32 The employers don't want you to leave.
13:34 You can shop and change your job.
13:36 They will also ask you to leave.
13:38 If you can shop,
13:40 they will ask you to leave.
13:42 There is no history.
13:44 Yes.
13:46 Yes.
13:48 It's a pity that we don't have much time.
13:50 Next time,
13:52 we will have a chance to talk again.
13:54 Thank you.
13:56 As the doctor said,
13:58 AI is very useful.
14:00 But we have to adjust
14:02 all the time.
14:04 [Thai]
